Here is a pic from Buttercup. This is taken at the top of comp hill, or whatever they call that hill that everyone races up at Buttercup.

I think Im selling my banshee I have now and getting a new one when I come back out to AZ. The only reason im selling it is because I just dont want it to sit there for 1 year losing value...:D
